A propos de cet article

Ex-library. Original red cloth binding with faded gilt lettering on spine. Spine is torn along front hinge, and contains a taped catalog number. Minor spotting on boards. Page edges are marked in ink, and book contains the stamps, markings, and card pocket of the Hamden Public Health and Visiting Nurses Association. Light foxing at inside hinges. Pages are tanned and contain a few pencil notations. This book is an attempt to analyze the effectiveness of voluntary health agencies as a whole, in order to understand the advantages and disadvantages of voluntary health agencies, and identify the gaps in care. It was written under the auspices of the National Health Council, and with the assistance of a robust advisory committee. Chapter subjects include those about the values and functions of voluntary health agencies and where they lag in their missions, what they can do to increase their effectiveness, the democratic process at work in agencies, the roles of state and national organizations, financing voluntary health work, professional organizations, volunteers, attitudes toward the future, and more. It also explores the changing nature of health agencies following World War II. The book contains appendices of agencies studied, statistical tables, and a self-evaluation schedule. Selskar Michael Gunn (1883-1944) was a public health expert who was a vice-president of the Rockefeller Foundation for many years. He is known for the foundation's program in China that combined improvements to agriculture, education and medicine in rural areas. From the nursing history collection of Sarah Abrams. Hardcover, acceptable condition. 364 pages, octavo.…
